Our events

The NDCS children’s programme is about more than just having fun. Our aim is to create a safe and deaf friendly environment for deaf children and young people to try something new, improve their communication skills, meet deaf role models, and gain confidence in communicating with others – whether its with speech, sign or a mixture of both.

Sam went from shy (standing on his own when i left him) to leaving with ‘high fives’ from his new mates.  A very happy boy.  Thanks!

My son seems more confident before he would watch other children from a distance letting his sister sort out the introduction.  Now he is more willing to get involved from the start.  My son also now wants to learn to sign so he can communicate with other people

Every year we offer a wide-range of activities so there should be something for everyone! The events are free if you are a member to attend and your child can attend one weekend and one adventure break each year. There is no limit to the number of day events.  Our team of organisers, based in Birmingham, London, Glasgow and Belfast, will be happy to talk to you in more detail about what your child can expect from an NDCS event. You can also email events@ndcs.org.uk with any questions you may have.
